Resumen
La pandemia tuvo un impacto psicosocial significativo en las personas, sin importar la edad, el género, el nivel socioeconómico y demás, arrasó con la vida de un sinnúmero de personas. El objetivo de la misma es determinar acciones comunitarias llevadas a cabo para contrarrestar el impacto psicosocial en las personas adultas mayores durante los primeros seis meses de la emergencia sanitaria; tomando en cuenta que el tipo de investigación fue un estudio cualitativo, de carácter transversal, de alcance descriptivo y exploratorio. El grupo en el cual se centró la atención fue en los adultos mayores de los sectores comprendidos Cerros de Mapasingue y Atarazana, en vista que ellos estaban en riesgo de adquirir este virus y ser los más afectados, lo que los llevó a un confinamiento riguroso para evitar el aumento de contagios, que consta desde un control epidemiológico hasta restricciones vehiculares y familiares. Posterior a todo ello, el horror fue inevitable, debido al contacto con los cadáveres, y el malestar que vivieron desembocó a un estrés y malestar debido al incremento de contagio; y las acciones comunitarias no se hicieron esperar por parte de los agentes externos como internos que mostraron ayuda para las personas de tercera edad; donde se realizó tomas de pruebas rápidas, entregas de alimentos y fármacos para la prevención del virus
The pandemic had a significant psychosocial impact on people, regardless of age, gender, socioeconomic status, and so on, it devastated the lives of countless people. The objective of this study is to determine community actions carried out to counteract the psychosocial impact on the elderly during the first six months of the health emergency; taking into account that the type of research was a qualitative, cross-sectional, descriptive and exploratory study. The group on which attention was focused was the elderly of the Cerros de Mapasingue and Atarazana sectors, since they were at risk of acquiring this virus and being the most affected, which led them to a rigorous confinement to avoid the increase of contagions, ranging from epidemiological control to vehicle and family restrictions. After all this, the horror was inevitable, due to the contact with the corpses, and the discomfort they experienced led to stress and discomfort due to the increase of contagion; and community actions were not long in coming from external and internal agents who showed help for the elderly; where rapid tests were performed, food and drugs were delivered for the prevention of the virus
